In the stunning conclusion to the wildly popular White Rabbit Chronicles, Alice "Ali" Bell thinks the worst is behind her. She's ready to take the next step with boyfriend Cole Holland, the leader of the zombie slayers…until Anima Industries, the agency controlling the zombies, launches a sneak attack, killing four of her friends. It's then she realizes that humans can be more dangerous than monsters…and the worst has only begun.

As the surviving slayers prepare for war, Ali discovers she, too, can control the zombies…and she isn't the girl she thought she was. She's connected to the woman responsible for killing—and turning—Cole's mother. How can their relationship endure? As secrets come to light, and more slayers are taken or killed, Ali will fight harder than ever to bring down Anima—even sacrificing her own life for those she loves.

Well, Queen of the Zombie Hearts is the final book in the White Rabbit Chronicles and what an amazing journey the author has taken her readers on. If the idea of zombies in romance seems farfetched then be assured that with Ms Showalter at the helm anything is truly possible.In this the last book everything has come well and truly to a head. It's a war that is spiraling out of control and Ali and the slayers are well and truly up against it. Time to make a stand and Anima industries are about to find out just what Ali is capable of. They may have caused her unmitigated pain and grief but Ali has grown up throughout this series and is not about to go quietly. There's a strength and power growing in Ali and she's finally learning to believe in herself, but no man or woman is an island and Ali is no exception. Throughout these books Ali has been on a voyage of self discovery and finally we get answers! Having Cole by her side takes this story up into the stratosphere but there is an awful lot to go through before Ali can finally take a well deserved bow!This book is a fabulous ending to what has been such a unique series. It made me gasp, it left me shouting, and it even caused me to question just how the author could ever give a happy ending. If you hanker for action then this book has it in spades but it's the twists and turns that blew this reader away!

As for romance, well suffice to say, I'm very sure many a reader would love a Cole of their own and a guilty pleasure is rereading some of his more memorable lines! The intensity of the relationship between them is a wonderful thing and it's almost as if they need each other just to breathe. Exciting, heart stopping, passionate romance and yet not erotica, this book may be aimed at Young Adults but it pulsates with a sensuous life of it's own that leaves this far older reader breathless.
